The well-appointed Archos AV500 puts wide-screen video in your pocket, but were still waiting for a point-and-click way to get video into the device.
Abstract: Archos keeps cranking out the portable video players (PVPs). The latest, the $500 AV500 Mobile DVR, has roughly the same compact form factor as Creatives slightly sleeker Zen Vision but manages to squeeze in a roomy wide-screen LCD. When you add its 3...
